Report: Leiderman Consulted with an Astrologer

Professor Leo Leiderman would regularly consult with astrologer Amos Aharoni, according to a Thursday-evening report by Channel 10 Television. A source close to Leiderman said the frequent, and sometimes very frequent sessions may have also dealt with numerology.

Leiderman, who serves as senior economist at Bank Hapo'alim, said the consultations were only on personal and family matters, "certainly not on professional and economic matters." Saying there was no need to expand on his answer, he called the consultations a hobby.
